with FHM United Kingdom September 2024 cover star Lauren Phillips / @xtakeme___ and @Madcreativity
I’m thrilled to be featured on FHM, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to share my thoughts and experiences with your readers.
Congratulations on being the newest ambassador for XTakeMe! How do you feel? I’m absolutely ecstatic! It’s an incredible honor to represent XTakeMe, a brand that shares my values of empowerment, self-expression, and sexual freedom. I feel proud to be part of a community that promotes positivity and acceptance.
Can you give us a bit of a background on your career as an adult star and where it all started? I’ve always been passionate about exploring my sexuality and helping others feel comfortable with theirs. My career in the adult industry began as a way to express myself and connect with like-minded individuals. Over time, I’ve built a brand that celebrates sexual freedom, confidence, and women empowerment.
What helps you decompress and relax? I’m a big fan of self-care! To unwind, I enjoy meditation, yoga, and spending time in nature such as walking. I also love reading and listening to music it helps me clear my mind and recharge.
How romantic are you? I’m a hopeless romantic at heart! I believe in the importance of connection, intimacy, and emotional vulnerability. I love surprises, candlelit dinners, and sentimental gestures that show affection and appreciation.
Having a full schedule must make it difficult for you to get much alone time, talk to us about the top 3 must-dos to ensure you fit in some well-deserved downtime: To prioritize self-care, I make sure to:
1. Schedule downtime: I block out time in my calendar for relaxation and self-care.
2. Set boundaries: I’m learning to say “no” to commitments that drain my energy and prioritize activities that nourish my mind, body, and soul.
3. Learning mindfulness: I focus on the present moment, letting go of stress and anxiety, and savoring the joy of being alone.
What does it mean for you to be seen as a strong, intelligent, ambitious woman? It means everything to me! I believe that women should be celebrated for their strengths, accomplishments, and passions. I strive to be a role model, inspiring others to embrace their individuality, pursue their dreams, and own their sexuality.
What are some of the biggest misconceptions people have about what you do? One common misconception is that adult performers are objectified or lack of united. In reality, many of us are entrepreneurs, artists, and activists who use our platforms to promote positive change and challenge societal norms.
What does freedom of self-expression mean to you? Freedom of self-expression means having the courage to be unapologetically myself, without fear of judgment or rejection. It’s about embracing my desires, passions, and creativity, and using my platform to inspire others to do the same.
Who are some of the models, stars, or influencers that you admire and draw inspiration from in your career? I’m inspired by strong, confident women who unapologetically own their sexuality and individuality. Some of my role models include Sophie Dee, Nina Hartley, and Sara Jay all pioneers in the adult industry who have paved the way for performers like me.
We absolutely love your Instagram, your content is very inspirational, and downright sexy, but above all, we love how you keep it real! Could you perhaps tell us what your personal experience as an adult star has been like? Thank you for your kind words! As an adult star, I’ve experienced a mix of challenges and opportunities. I’ve faced stigma, discrimination, and online harassment, but I’ve also had the privilege of connecting with amazing people, exploring my creativity, and promoting positive change.
Do you have any hidden talents, if so, what is it? I have no hidden talents. My life is an open book for everyone to read and learn from. They can take what they need.
What is your favorite body part on you? on him? on her? I love my curves, especially my hips and thighs! On others, I appreciate confidence, kindness, and a sense of humor.
If you could eat just one food for the rest of your life, what would it be and why? I’m a pizza lover! If I had to choose one food, it would be New York-style Pizza with Jersey sauce. my weakness.
For all your XTakeMe fans, where would you love someone to take you on a first date? I’d love to be taken on a romantic getaway to a secluded beach resort, where we could enjoy each other’s company, relax, and indulge in some sensual fun in the shadows.
